I don't understand why people just accept all-caps fatwas & policy statements on Trump's Twitter rip-off website

I don't even wanna go down the "can you imagine if Obama did this" road.

He's basically issuing a screaming threat to Venezuela (details here) : https://www.rawstory.com/trump-2674012975/

And no one even calls it out...they just accept him "legislating" from his P.O.S. MAGAt echo chamber.

The media's response SHOULD be, "The president again posted crazed remarks on Truth Social with his typical disregard for standard grammar, punctuation and capitalization rules. Our reporters are trying to find a competent rational adult in the administration that can confirm what in that statement is true."
